Hedges and boosters in L1 and L2 argumentative paragraphs : implications for teaching L2 academic writing
Algı, Sedef; Hatipoğlu, Çiler; Department of English Language Teaching (2012)
This study investigates the types, frequencies and functions of hedges and boosters employed in L1 and L2 argumentative paragraphs written by Turkish learners of English with pre-intermediate level of proficiency. It aims to uncover whether or not Turkish learners of English writing in L1 and L2 display any transfer in their employment of hedges and boosters. The extent to which the academic writing teaching materials result in any measurable change in the employment of hedges and boosters is also pursued. ...
Ambiguity and asset pricing: An empirical investigation for an emerging market
Sahin, Baki Cem; Danışoğlu, Seza (2022-11-01)
This study explores the impact of ambiguity on returns of both individual stocks and stock portfolios in an emerging market setting. First, an ambiguity index is derived and then the sensitivity of stock returns to am-biguity is analyzed while controlling for the other risk factors commonly cited in the literature. Results show that stocks with a high (low) sensitivity to ambiguity generate higher (lower) excess returns. These results are intuitive in the sense that investors seem to ask for lower returns f...
Confidence-based concept discovery in relational databases
Kavurucu, Yusuf; Karagöz, Pınar; Toroslu, İsmail Hakkı (2009-11-16)
Multi-relational data mining has become popular due to the limitations of propositional problem definition in structured domains and the tendency of storing data in relational databases. Several relational knowledge discovery systems have been developed employing various search strategies, heuristics, language pattern limitations and hypothesis evaluation criteria, in order to cope with intractably large search space and to be able to generate high-quality patterns. In this work, we improve an ILP-based con...
Jumps in an stochastic optimization: self-financing portfolio for risk averse investors: does bequest matter?
Gazioglu, Saziye; Bastiyali-Hafavi, Azize; Sezgin, Ozge (2013-05-01)
We optimized consumer/investor behaviour, subject to self-financing constraint by using stochastic dynamics system with jumps. Our aim in this article was to compare a stochastic optimization model with and without jumps in a self-financing portfolio model, for the risk averse investors. In this article, our contribution to the literature was to introduce an analytical solution of the utility maximizing model and to investigate the consequences of jumps and bequest to the economic system. A previous model b...
